Bookmark in Lightning Experience

If you have a lot of content to navigate to in Salesforce. But now, it’s much easier to quickly access your important content with Favorites for Lightning Experience. In Spring ’17, use Favorites to bookmark records, lists, Chatter groups, reports, and dashboards. With Favorites, you’re just a click away from the things you use the most, no matter where you are in the app. And unlike browser bookmarks, your favorites are stored in the cloud. You can always visit then no matter which browser or computer you’re using to access Lightning Experience.

As you use Favorites, Salesforce automatically learns which ones you view the most. Those pages are tracked in the Top Favorites section of the menu for even faster access.
